Is he a Biden family member?
They don’t want an honest conversation. That leads to talking about things like single female “family” raising of male children, crime rates by race, and other difficult topics that must be addressed if life in the black community is to improve.
who says this?!
He should have called her an Amish person and refused to look.
“It’s another non-sequitur by the communists. Problems that DON’T exist.”
Indeed.
He should have called her an Amish person and refused to look.
Hahaha
“Ain’t no Amish heeyah, an’ i ai’tnever left out to go to Pennsa-vanya”.
Different versions. The version I heard was the term originated from slave owners cracking the whip.
‘zactly, from Ocala National Forest near Daytona Beach, all the way west to the Cedar Key on the Gulf, up to Big Bend and more. Awesome Backwoods Florida
Watch out for bears and skeeters.
You are entirely too sane and literate. 😊
Oh yea, this can’t be no made-up crap just to get it in the news. I always threaten to lynch black folks. Happens all the time. I’m sure we all do this.
No, there are not. The only reason some people characterize these issues as "critical" is because people like this just keep picking at it. Leave it alone (race) and you know what? People will just be people. Some are going to good people, some are going to be a-holes. Holding never ending "conversations" about x, y, or z is just keeping them alive as issues to divide us.
It may surprise you but we don’t call ourselves cracker so it’s not something I think much about although I’ve read over the years it refers to ox cart or mule team masters cracking the whip to move the teams around from Florida or Georgia
It’s usually a disrespectful term especially when used by blacks or liberals to address or describe whites
Imagine I ask you
Hey Mac where do you think the word “nigger” comes from mac
Now you might say but Wardaddy that word is far worse and I’d say really....blacks themselves say it constantly ....I mean try being around some and listen ....it’s an affectionate or not so affectionate term for one another ...
In any event I’m sure the black person I asked hey where does the word “nigger” come from would have diffficulty saying the Niger River basin or the Spanish or creole word negro or negra
Cracker is a word that lives between Yankee and “nigger”
But it’s not quite quotation marks worthy
Kinda like squarehead
Amd acceptances morph
Here on free Republic 20 years ago I was publicly admonished for saying wetback or mojado
Can you imagine that today here
Maybe cracker will become a term of endearment to whites one day in America
Yo my cracker wazzup....kinda katchy
Yo my squarehead wazzup.....no quite the same is it
Wars are on the battlefield and history and cultural interpretations and to the victor goes the spoils unless he totally fcuks it up lol I’m the century afterwards
You are correct sir! I am one and proud of it. My family moved to Florida in 1868 on a 200 acre homestead grant from the government. I am a 4th generation Florida Cracker.
Nothing to do with slave owners. Florida had a cattle industry bigger than Texas. The Florida Cowboys or Hearders used bull whips to manage a herd. The cracking of the bull whips earned the Florida Cowboys the name “Crackers”.

Apparently cracker once meant someone who loves to boast
Some people don’t like being called “cracker.” It’s probably why he tetched off and got mad. That thing holding the video phone had a mouth on her.
In my little N. GA city, Popeye’s doesn’t have that problem. None of them are black.
That’s an explanation I remember seeing.
